Abstract
Aspects for vector circular shifting in neural network are described herein. The aspects may include a direct memory access unit configured to receive a vector that includes multiple elements. The multiple elements are stored in a one-dimensional data structure. The direct memory access unit may store the vector in a vector caching unit. The aspects may further include an instruction caching unit configured to receive a vector shifting instruction that includes a step length for shifting the elements in the vector. Further still, the aspects may include a computation module configured to shift the elements of the vector toward one direction by the step length.
